[Excessive morbidity in kindergarten children--assessment in an industrial region].
Based on 3638 cases of illness over one year, the constant high morbidity of nursery school children in an industrial region were analyzed and compared. Extremely high is the number of illnesses of the upper respiratory tract with otitis media, conjunctivitis and with enteritis from October to March. In an industrial conglomerate combined effects of harmful substances are possible. Present measurements of industrial waste are insufficient. The morbidity of nursery school children demands a much higher intensification of ecological hygienic effort.
